Save The Pearls Part Two: Adapting Eden - Hardcover

WOULD YOU RISK YOUR LIFE AND GIVE UP YOUR HUMANITY FOR THE ONE YOU LOVE?

In the sequel to the award-winning-dystopian novel Revealing Eden, Eden Newman must adapt into a hybrid human beast if she hopes to become Ronson Bramford's mate and survive the overheated environment of Earth. She has no choice but to undergo her father's adaptation experiment under risky conditions at his makeshift laboratory in the last patch of the rainforest.

But when the past rears its ugly head, Eden and Bramford must abandon camp along with their family and friends. Luckily, an Aztec tribe, which has survived due to a miraculous healing plant, provides them with sanctuary-- or do they have a deeper motive?

Too late, Eden realizes that she is at the center of an epic spiritual battle between love and war, which will determine the fate of the world. To survive and save the ones she loves, she must face her deepest fears or lose everything, including Bramford.
